The Pulsar Telelog from Jekyll Electronic Technology is a major innovation for companies wishing to add alarm status telemetry at remote facilities.
With CoP6 available, the utility can use this existing data collection capability to communicate with electricity, gas and water meters and provide their customers with energy management data and services.
The Pulsar Telelog with its integral modem is powered from the telephone line making the unit reliable, easy to install and cost-effective to operate.
The CoP6 protocol was introduced to standardise the communications between different metering equipment.
By incorporating this interface onto the Pulsar Telelog, Jekyll is helping multi-energy supply companies transform themselves into energy service suppliers.
The Pulsar provides 30 minute period accumulation of meter data from pulse output meters as required for the electricity market.
This time base segregation of usage can be utilised when collecting gas or water data to provide leak detection, trend information and multi-tariff charge data accumulation to further enhance the service that the utility can offer their customers.
The Pulsar Telelog provides four pulse input channels to take data from electromechanical meters and a serial RS232 port for collection of data from an electronic meter.
The memory can store sixty days of data (expandable to 480 days), and the data accumulation period is adjustable from 5 minutes to 24 hours.
DL130 and IEC1107 data formats can be supported in addition to CoP6, and a V22bis modem link ensures rapid data transfer.
The Pulsar Telelog has CTR/21 approval for use throughout Europe. Request a free brochure from Jekyll Electronic Technology ...
